That is Allah, your Lord: so blessed be Allah, the Lord of the Alamin (mankind, jinn and all that exists).
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 40, Verse 64
He created you (all) from a single person (Adam); then made from him his wife {Hawwa ,(Eve)}.
and He has sent down for you of cattle eight pairs (of the sheep ,two, male and female; of the goats, two,
Male and female; of the oxen, two, male and female and of the camels, two, male and female).
He creates you in the wombs of your mothers: creation after creation in there veils of darkness.
Such is Allah your Lord His is the Kingdom. La ilaha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He).
How then are you turned away?
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 39, Verse 6
Indeed your Lord is Allah, Who created the heavens and the earth in six days,
and then He rose over(Istawa)the Throne(really in manner that suits His Majesty).

Allah! La ilaha illa Huwa(none has the right to be worshipped but He),Al-Hayyul-Qayyuum(the Ever Living the One Who
Sustains and protects all that exists). Neither slumber nor sleep overtakes Him.
To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth.
Who is he that can intercede with Him except with His Permission?
He Knows what happens to them (His creatures) in this world, and what will happen to them in the Hereafter.
And they will never compass any thing of His Knowledge except that which He wills.
His Kursi extends over the heavens and the earth and He feels no fatigue in guarding and preserving them.
And He is the Most High, the Most Great.(This Verse 2:255 is called Ayat-ul-Kursi) .
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 2 Verse 255

own not even a Qitmir (the thin membrane over the date-stone).
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 35, Verse 13

You (Alone) we worship, and You (Alone) we ask for help(for each and everything).
Guide us to the Straight Way.
The Way of those on whom You have bestowed Your Grace, not (the way) of those who earned Your Anger,
nor of those who went astray.
The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 1, Verses 1-6
7) Who shall we invoke in time of disaster?
And when they embark on a ship, they invoke Allah, making their Faith pure for Him Only:
but when He brings them safely to land, behold they give a share of their worship to others.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 29 Verse 65
And when harm touches man, he invokes GOD, lying on his side, or sitting or standing.
But when GOD has removed his harm from him, he passes on as if he had never invoked GOD for a harm that touched him!
Thus it is made fair-seeming to the Musrifun that which they used to do.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 10, Verse 12
8) What happened to the previous nations when they disobeyed Allah?
So GOD punished each (of them) for his sins;
of them were some on whom GOD sent Hasib (a violent wind with shower of stones)(as on the people of Lut (Lot) ),
and of them were some who were overtaken by As-saihah (torment–awful cry)(as Thamud or Shuabs people),
and of them were some when GOD caused the earth to swallow(as Qarun (Korah),
and of them were some whom GOD drowned(as the people of Nuh (Noah),or Firaun (Pharaoh) and his people).
It was not Allah Who wronged them, but they wronged themselves.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 29, Verse 40

and perform As-Salat (Iqamat-as-salat) for My Remembrance.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 20, Verse 14
11) What is the religion of Allah?
Truly, the religion with Allah is Islam. Those who were given the Scripture did not differ except,
out of mutual jealousy, after knowledge had come to them. And whoever disbelieves in the Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, signs,
Revelations, etc.) Of Allah, then surely, Allah is Swift in calling to account.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 3, Verse 19
12) What is the religion accepted by Allah?
And whoever seeks a religion other than Islam, it will never be accepted of him and in the Hereafter
he will be one of the losers.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 3, Verse 85
13) Where does the Qur'an come from?

As (He sent Revelation to) those before you.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 42, Verse 3
(Say (O Muhammad pbuh))
“Shall I seek a judge other than Allah while it is He Who has sent down unto you the book (the Qur'an), explained in detail.”
Those unto whom GOD gave the Scripture (the Taurat (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel))
Know that it is revealed from your Lord in truth .So be not you of those who doubt.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 6, Verse 114
14) Why did Allah send messengers?
We sent no Messenger, but to be obeyed by Allah's Leave.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 4, Verse 64
15) Do we have to believe in all the messengers?
The Messenger (Muhammad pbuh) believes in what has been sent down to him from his Lord and (so do) the believers.
Each one believes in Allah, His angels, His Books, and His Messengers.
(They say), “We make no distinction between one another of His Messengers” –
and they say, “We hear and we obey.(We seek)Your Forgiveness, our Lord, and to You is the return(of all).”
-The Holy Qur'an,Chapter 2,Verse 285
16) What happened to the previous scriptures?
Among those who are Jewish, some distort the words beyond the truth, and they say,
"We hear your word (O Muhammad (pbuh)), but we disobey," and
"Your words are falling on deaf ears," and "Raa'ena (be our shepherd)(be kind with us),"
as they twist their tongues to mock the religion(Islam).
Had they said, "We hear, and we obey," and "We hear you," and "Unzurna (watch over us)(Do make us understand),"
it would have been better for them, and more righteous.
Instead, they have incurred condemnation from GOD due to their disbelief.
Consequently, the majority of them cannot believe.
Among those who are jews, there are some who displace words from (their) right places and say:
“We hear your word (O Muhammad (pbuh) ) and disobey,” and “Hear and let you (O Muhammad (pbuh) )hear nothing.”
And Raina (be kind with us) with a twist of there tongues and as a mockery of the religion (Islam)
And if only they had said: “We hear and obey”, And “Do make us understand,” it would have been better for them,
and more proper; but Allah has cursed them for their disbelief, so they believe not except a few.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 4, Verse 46
So because of their breach of their covenant, GOD cursed them and made their hearts grow hard.
They change the words from their (right) places and have abandoned a good part of the Message that was sent to them.
And you will not cease to discover deceit in them, except a few of them. But forgive them and overlook (their misdeeds).
Verily, Allah loves Al-Muhsinun (good-doers).
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 5, Verse 13
17) Who is the last messenger?
Muhammad (pbuh) is no more than a Messenger, and indeed (many) Messengers have passed away before him.
If he dies or is killed, will you then turn back on your heels (as disbelievers)?
And he who turns back on his heels, not the least harm will he do to Allah;
and Allah will give reward to those who are grateful.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 3, Verse 144
18) To whom did Allah send the last messenger Prophet Muhammad (pbuh)?
And We have not sent you (O Muhammad pbuh ) except as a giver of glad tidings and a Warner to all mankind,
But most of men know not.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 34, Verse 28
19) What did Allah prepare for those among the Jews and Christians who believe?
O you who believe (in Musa (moses) (i.e. Jews) and Isa (Jesus)(i.e. Christians)!
Fear Allah, and believe in His Messenger (Muhammad (pbuh) ),
He will give you a double portion of His Mercy, and He will give you a light by which you shall walk(straight).
And He will forgive you. And Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
-The Holy Qur'an Chapter 57, Verse 28
20) What is the likeness of lsa (Jesus) before Allah?
Verily, the likeness of Isa (Jesus) (pbuh) before Allah is the likeness of Adam.
He created him from dust, then (He) said to him: “Be” – and he was.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 3, Verse 59
21) What did Allah say about Mary?
And (remember) when the angels said: “(O Maryam (Mary))! Verily, Allah has chosen you, purified you
(From polytheism and disbelief), and chosen you above the women of the Alamin(mankind and jinn) (of her lifetime).
” O Mary! “Submit yourself with obedience to your Lord (Allah), by worshipping none but Him Alone) and prostrate yourself,
and Irkai(bow down) along with ArRakiun (those who bow down).”
This is apart of the news of the Ghaib (unseen ,i.e. the news of the past national of which you have no knowledge)
which We reveal to you (O Muhammad (pbuh) )You were not with them, when they cast lots with their pens
as to which of them should be charged with the care of Maryam (Mary);
nor were you with them when they disputed.
(Remember) when the angels said: “O Maryam (Mary)! Verily Allah gives you the glad tidings of a Word
(“Be”- and he was! I.e. Isa (Jesus) the son of Maryam (Mary), from Him,
his name will be the Messiah Isa (Jesus),the son of Maryam (Mary),held in honour in this world and in the Hereafter,
and will be one of those who are near to Allah.”
“He will speak to the people in the cradle and in manhood and he one of the righteous.”
She said: “O my Lord! How shall I have a son when no man has touched me.”
He said: “So (it will be) for Allah creates what He wills.
When He has decreed something, He says to it only: “Be!” – and it is.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 3, Verses 42-47
22) Was Jesus crucified and died on the cross?
And because of their saying (in boast),“We killed Messiah Isa (Jesus),son of Maryam (Mary),the Messenger of Allah,”
–But they killed him not, nor crucified him, but they resemblance of Isa (Jesus) was put over another man
(and they Killed that man),and those who differ therein are full of doubts.
They have no (certain) knowledge, they follow nothing but conjecture.
For surely; they killed him not (i.e. Isa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary) ).
But Allah raised him (Isa (Jesus) up (with his body and soul) unto Himself (and he (as) is in the heavens).
And Allah is Ever All-Powerful All-Wise.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 4, Verses 157-158
23) Was Jesus the son of God (Allah)?
Say (O Muhammad (pbuh)):“He is Allah, (the) One. Allah the self-Sufficient Master, Whom all creatures need,
He neither eats nor drinks. He neither gives birth, nor was HE born.
And there is none co-equal or comparable unto Him.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 112, Verses 1-4
24) How could you be secure?
It is those who believe (in the Oneness of Allah and worship none but Him Alone)
And confuse not their belief with Zulm (wrong i.e. by worshipping others beside Allah),
For them (only) there is security and they are the guided.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 6, Verse 82
25) What is the life of this world?
Know that the life of this world is only play and amusement, pomp and mutual boasting among you,
and rivalry in respect of wealth and children.(It is) as the likeness of vegetation after rain,
thereof the growth is pleasing to the tiller; afterwards it dries up and you see it turning yellow;
then it becomes straw. But in the Hereafter (there is) a severe torment (for the disbelievers –evil-doers),
and(there is) Forgiveness from Allah and (His) Good Pleasure (for the believers –good-doers).
And the life of this world is only a deceiving enjoyment.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 57, Verse 20
26) Whatever of blessings and good things you have, is it from Allah?
And whatever of blessings and good things you have, it is from Allah.
Then, when harm touches you, unto Him you cry aloud for help.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 16, Verse 53
27) How could you guarantee the blessings of Allah?
And (remember) when your Lord proclaimed:
“If give thanks (by accepting Faith and worshipping none but Allah),I will give you more (of My Blessings);
but if you are thankless(i.e. disbelievers),verily My punishment is indeed sever.”
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 14, Verse 7
28) How could you save yourself from a painful torment?
O you who believe! Shall I guide you to a trade that will save you from a painful torment?
That you believe in Allah and His Messenger (Muhammad (pbuh) ).
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 61, Verses 10-11
29) Whosoever puts his trust in Allah, what will happen to him?
And He will provide him from (sources) he never could imagine.
And whosoever puts his trust in Allah then He will suffice him.
Verily, Allah will accomplish his purpose. Indeed Allah has set a measure for all things.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 65, Verse 3
30) What is the destination of the disbelievers?
So this Day no ransom shall be taken from you (hypocrites),
Nor of those who disbelieved (in the Oneness of Allah –Islamic Monotheism).
Your abode is the (Hell) Fire. That is your maula (friend – proper place), and worst indeed is that destination.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 57, Verse 15
31) What is the destination of the believers?
But those who believe (in the Oneness of Allah – Islamic Monotheism) and do deeds of righteousness,
We shall admit them to Gardens under which rivers flow (Paradise), abiding therein forever.
Therein they shall have Azwajun Mutahharatun (purified mates or wives), and We shall admit them to shades
wide and ever deepening (Paradise).
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 4, Verse 57
32) How could you be happy?
Whoever works righteousness-whether male or female –While he (or she) is a true believer (of Islamic Monotheism)
Verily, to him GOD will give a good life (in this world with respect, contentment and lawful provision),
And We shall pay them certainly a reward in proportion to the best of what they used to do (i.e. Paradise in the Hereafter).
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 16, Verse 97
33. The 'Test' in the life of this world
“You shall certainly be tried and tested in your wealth and properties and in your personal selves,
and you shall certainly hear much that will grieve you from those who received the Scripture before you(Jews and Christians)
and from those who ascribe partners to Allah; but if you persevere patiently, and become Al-Muttaqun (the pious)
then verily, that will be a determining factor in all affairs.”
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 3 Verse 186
“And know that your possessions and your children are but a trial and that surely, with Allah is a mighty reward.”
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 8, Verse 28
34. Allah tests each one of us with things that are within our reach
“O you who believe! Allah will certainly make a trial of you with something in (the matter of)the game that is well
within the reach of your hands and your lances, that Allah may test who fears Him unseen.
Then whoever transgresses thereafter, for him there is a painful torment.”
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 5, Verse 94
35. When will we be paid for our actions in this world?
“Everyone shall taste death. And only on the Day of Resurrection shall you be paid your wages in full.
And whoever is removed away from the Fire and admitted to Paradise, he indeed is successful.
The life of this world is only the enjoyment of deception (a deceiving thing).
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 3, verse 185
36. No ones work will be lost
“So their Lord accepted of them (their supplication and answered them),
“Never will I allow to be lost the work of any of you, be he male or female.
You are (members) one of another, so those who emigrated and were driven out from their homes, and suffered harm in My Cause,
and who fought, and were killed (in My Cause),verily, I will expiate from them their evil deeds and admit them into Gardens
under which rivers flow (in Paradise);a reward from Allah, and with Allah is the best of rewards.””
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 3, Verse 195
37. Each one’s good deed will be doubled
“Surely, Allah wrongs not even of the weight of an atom (or a small ant), but there is any good (done), He doubles it,
and gives from Him a great reward.”
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 4, Verse 40
38. Allah is so merciful that good deeds will be multiplied and small sins shall be overlooked if you avoid the major sins

and whoever brings an evil deed shall have only the recompense of the like thereof, and they will not be wronged.”

5) The neighbor who is near of kin,
6) The neighbor who is a stranger,

8) The wayfarer (you meet),
9) And those (slaves) whom your right hands possess.
Verily, Allah does not like such as are proud and boastful.”
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 4, Verse 36
40. What does Qur’an say about parents?
“And your Lord has decreed that you worship none but Him. And that you be dutiful to your parents.
If one of them or both of them attain old age in your life, say not to them a work of disrespect, nor shout at them
but address them in terms of honor.” “And lower unto them the wings of submission and humility through mercy,
and say: “My Lord! Bestow on them your Mercy as they did bring me up when I was young.”
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 17, Verse 23-24
"And GOD has enjoined on man (to be dutiful and good) to his parents.
His mother bore him in weakness and hardship upon weakness and hardship ,and his weaning is in two years-
give thanks to Me and to your parents".
(The Holy Qur'an 31:14)
We have enjoined on man kindness to his parents: In pain did his mother bear him, and in pain did she give him birth.
The carrying of the (child) to his weaning is (a period of) thirty months. At length, when he reaches the age of full strength
and attains forty years, he says, "O my Lord! Grant me that I may be grateful for Thy favour which Thou has bestowed upon me,
and upon both my parents, and that I may work righteousness such as Thou may approve; and be gracious to me in my issue.
Truly have I turned to Thee and truly do I bow (to Thee) in Islam.
Such are they from whom GOD shall accept the best of their deeds and pass by their ill deeds:
(They shall be) among the Companions of the Garden: a promise! Of truth, which was made to them (in this life).
(The Holy Qur'an 46:15, 16)
We have enjoined on man kindness to parents: but if they (either of them) strive (to force) thee to join with Me (in worship)
anything of which thou hast no knowledge, DONT obey them. Ye have (all) to return to me, and I will tell you (the truth)
of all that ye did.
(The Holy Qur'an 29:8)

the neighbour who is near of kin, the neighbour who is a stranger, the companion by your side, the wayfarer (you meet),
and those (slaves) whom your right hands possess".
(The Holy Qur'an 4:36)
Worship none but Allah; treat with kindness your parents and kindred, and orphans and those in need;
Speak fair to the people; be steadfast in prayer; and practice regular charity

-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 5, verse 15-16

In the creation of the heavens and the earth and the alternation of night and day,
there are signs for people with intelligence: those who remember Allah, standing, sitting and lying on their sides,

and the ships which sail the seas to people's benefit, and the water which Allah sends down from the sky –
by which He brings the earth to life when it was dead and scatters about in it creatures of every kind –
and the varying direction of the winds, and the clouds subservient between heaven and earth,
there are Signs for people who use their intellect.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 2, Verse 164
Will they not ponder the Qur'an? If it had been from other than Allah, they would have found many inconsistencies in it.

Did you suppose that GOD created you for amusement and that you would not return to Us?
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 23, Verse 115

There are men who proclaim His glory morning and evening, not distracted by trade or commerce from the remembrance of Allah
and the establishment of salat (regular Prayer) and the payment of zakat (regular Charity);
fearing a day when all hearts and eyes will be in turmoil –so that Allah can reward them for the best of what they did
and give them more from His unbounded favour. Allah provides for anyone He wills without reckoning.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 24, Verse 37-38
He who created me and guides me;
He who gives me food and gives me drink;
And when I am ill, it is He who heals me;

But as for their brothers, the visitors lead them further into error. And they do not stop at that!
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 7, Verse 201-202
They know an outward aspect of the life of this world but are heedless of the hereafter (The permanent life after death).

except with truth and for a fixed term. Yet many people reject the meeting with their Lord.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 30, Verse 7-8
Those are the people who have lost their own selves. What they invented has abandoned them.
Without question they will be the greatest losers in the hereafter. As for those who believe and do right actions

The likeness of the two groups is that of the blind and deaf and the seeing and hearing. Are they the same as one another?
So will you not pay heed?
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 11, Verse 21-24

They will say: To Allah.
Say: So will you not pay heed?

They will say: Allah.
Say: So will you not have taqwa?
Say: In whose hand is the dominion over everything, He who gives protection and from whom no protection can be given,
if you have any knowledge?
They will say: Allah's.

The fact is that GOD has given them the truth and they are liars.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 23, Verse 84-90
(*Taqwa : Awe or fear of Allah, which inspires a person to be on guard against wrong action and eager for actions
Which please Him.)
Is He Who creates like him who does not create? So will you not pay heed?
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 16, Verse 17
Like those before you who had greater strength than you and more wealth and children.
They enjoyed their portion; so enjoy your portion as those before you enjoyed theirs.

The actions of such people come to nothing in this world or the hereafter. They are the lost.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 9, Verse 69
62. Condition of people on the Day of Judgement, who failed to ponder and understand the purpose of life.

They will shout out in it, Our Lord! Take us out! We will act rightly, differently from the way we used to act!

That day Hell is produced, that day man will remember; but how will the remembrance help him?
He will say, Oh! If only I had prepared in advance for this life of mine!

-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 3, Verse 139
"Hasten to forgiveness from your Lord and a garden [i.e., Paradise] as wide as the heavens and earth."
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 3, Verse 133
"Then We caused to inherit the Book those We have chosen of Our servants; and among them is he who wrongs himself[i.e., sins],
and among them is he who is moderate, and among them is he who is foremost in good deeds by permission of Allah.
That is what is the great bounty."
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 35, Verse 32
"Not equal are those believers remaining [at home] - other than the disabled -
and those who strive and fight in the cause of Allah with their wealth and their lives.
Allah has preferred those who strive through their wealth and their lives over those who remain inactive, by degrees.
And to all Allah has promised the best [reward].But Allah has preferred those who strive over those
who remain inactive with a great reward -degrees [of high position] from Him and forgiveness and mercy.
And Allah is ever Forgiving and Merciful."
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 4, Verse 95-96.
"The ones who have believed, emigrated and striven in the cause of Allah with their wealth and their lives
are greater in rank in the sight of Allah. And it is those who are the attainers [of success]."
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 9, Verse 20
"Those did not [truly] believe, so Allah has rendered their deeds worthless, and that is ever, for Allah, easy."
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 33, Verse 19
Those the Qur'an describes as people who lack a complete faith can easily fall into the trap of Satan
since they do not exercise wisdom and conscience. Such people claim that they have faith
but never feel it deep in their hearts.
The call of Satan and the lifestyle to which he invites seems alluring to them, and thus they follow it gladly and willingly
As always, however Satan only calls people to delusion and Hellfire, the eternal abode of punishment.
"O Allah, I seek Your protection from distress and grief, from failure and laziness, and from the burden of debt
and from being overcome by men."- Prophet Mohamed (PBUH-Peace Be Upon Him).
"Among the believers are men true to what they promised Allah. Among them is he who has fulfilled his vow,
and among them is he who awaits [his chance].And they did not alter [the terms of their commitment] by any alteration."
-The Holy Qur'an,Chapter 33,Verse 23.
64. WHAT IS THIS LIFE FOR?
God did not create this world without purpose.
God tells mankind in the Qur’an that the life of this world is a test, a test to see “which of you is best in action”
and that each soul would be repaid in full for whatever it has earned in this earthly sojourn.
We did not create the heavens and the earth and everything between them as a game.
We did not create them except with truth but most of them do not know it.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 44, Verse 38-39
He Who created death and life to test which of you is best in action.
He is the Almighty, the Ever-Forgiving.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 67, Verse 2
Verily We created Man from a drop of mingled sperm, in order to try him: So We gave him (the gifts) of hearing and sight.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 76, Verse 2
Not for (idle) sport did GOD create the heavens and the earth and all that is between them!
If it had been HIS wish to take (just) a pastime, GOD could have found it in HIS presence, if HE would do (such a thing)!
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 21, Verse 16-17
That which is on earth We have made but as a glittering show for the earth,in order that We may test them –
as to which of them are best in conduct.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 18, Verse 7
Know that your wealth and children are a trial and that there is an immense reward with Allah.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 8, Verse 28
We will test you with a certain amount of fear and hunger and loss of wealth and life and fruits of your toil.
But give good news to the steadfast: Those who, when disaster strikes them, say,
"We belong to Allah and to Him we will return". Those are the people who will have blessings and mercy from their Lord;
they are the ones who are guided.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 2,Verse 155-157
Know you (all), that the life of this world is but play and amusement, pomp and mutual boasting and multiplying (in rivalry)
among yourselves, riches and children. Here is a similitude: How rain and the growth which it brings forth delight
(in the hearts of) the tillers; soon it withers; you will see it grow yellow; then it becomes dry and crumbles away.
But in the Hereafter is a Penalty severe (for the devotees of wrong).
And Forgiveness from Allah and (His) Good Pleasure (for the devotees of Allah).
And what is the life of this world, but goods and chattels of deception?
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 57, verse 20
Know that the life of the world is merely a game and a diversion and ostentation and a cause of boasting among yourselves
and trying to outdo one another in wealth and children: like the plant-growth after rain which delights the cultivators,
but then it withers and you see it turning yellow, and then it becomes broken stubble.
In the hereafter there is terrible punishment but also forgiveness from Allah and His good pleasure.
The life of the world is nothing but the enjoyment of delusion.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 57, Verse 20
The life of this world is nothing but a game and a diversion. The hereafter is better for those who guard against evil.
So will you not use your intellect?
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 6, Verse 32
Wealth and sons are the embellishment of the life of this world. But, in your Lord's sight,
right actions which are lasting bring a better reward and are a better basis for hope.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 18, Verse 46
"We did not give any human being before you immortality. And if you die, will they then be immortal?
Every self will taste death. GOD tests you with both good and evil as a trial. And you will be returned to GOD,"
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 21, Verse 34-35
You will be tested in your wealth and in yourselves...
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 3, Verse 186
65. WHAT IS MY DUTY?
Mankind! Worship your Lord, Who created you and those before you, so that hopefully you may do your duty.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 2, Verse 21
That is Allah, your Lord. There is no god but Him, the Creator of everything. So worship Him.He is responsible for everything.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 6, Verse 102
'My people, worship Allah! You have no other god than Him. I fear for you the punishment of a dreadful Day.'
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 7, Verse 59
The Unseen of the heavens and the earth belongs to Allah and the whole affair will be returned to Him.
So worship Him and put your trust in Him.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 11, Verse 123
Mankind! Heed your Lord and fear a day when no father will be able to atone for his son,or son for his father,in any way.
Allah's promise is true. So do not let the life of this world delude you
and do not let the Deluder delude you concerning Allah.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 31, Verse 33
… So heed Allah. And know that you will be gathered back to Him.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 2, Verse 203
Allah augments those who are guided by giving them greater guidance. In your Lord's sight,
right actions which are lasting are better both in reward and end result.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 19, Verse 76
Will they not ponder the Qur'an? If it had been from other than Allah, they would have found many inconsistencies in it.
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 4, Verse 82
"We have sent down the Book to you with truth. So worship Allah making your religion sincerely His.
Indeed the sincere religion belongs to Allah alone..."
-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 39, Verse 2-3
66. THE FINAL MESSAGE:

-The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 18, Verse 110
"Say (O Muhammad (pbuh)): I possess no power over benefit or hurt to myself except as Allah wills.
If I had the knowledge of the Ghayb (Unseen),I should have secured for myself an abundance of wealth,
